Lauren Boebert asks Jewish group visiting Capitol if they’re on ‘reconnaissance’
Ms Boebert says she only cracked a joke at the group and some people ‘got it’

Hilarious !!
Its great that he can crack jokes whilst under investigation. I am not sure why she would target a reconisably Jewish party for her humour though.
I do not think orthodox Jews have a record of insurrection in the US where the overwhelming number of domestic terroriss seem to be white christian right wingers.
That is frriends of Ms Boebert.
This raises a number of confusing issues. I am not an expert on US extremism but perhaps one of my many friends on here can help. We know that the right despise Jews but there is a splintering in the right. On the one hand there are traditional Nazis who love dressing up and insignia and Hitler.
And then on the other hand there is a grouping that shares common ground with the Jews in their hatred of Muslims. Which group is Lauren in ?
Fair play to Lauren as well. I doubt that she could spell " Reconnaissance " let alone give you a valid use of the word.
